Around here they make you take small runs with your ride to make sure that you can handle it without putting it in the grandstands. After acp. your application for your lisc. and your car passes tech for a 9.99 car,they start you with a burnout. Later you stage the car, then a 60 foot run, then 1/4 track, 1/2 track etc. until you have made a certain number of passes for their approval.
